Brymir - Voices in the Sky
I mentioned this a few days ago...for some reason I keep going back to it...this album is a ton of fun
Melodic death metal from Finland with a definite epic/power metal attitude (those choruses!). Lots of sweet guitar leads too.
Nick, finally had a chance to give this a spin.
I really did not like the vocals, but some of the music, in the first half the album is really nice and epic sounding. That seemed to taper off in the second half though and kind of became a harshfest. I had it on at work, but that was my impression.

Gave the new Darkthrone a spin. Not really familiar with them but a guy at work mentioned them. This album felt way too slow in tempo for my tastes. There were a few bright spots, but it just felt so damn gloomy.
Because I let Spotify run on it lead me to this:

I really enjoyed this 2021 album. I had it on at work so it was generally background while I input data, but it was really enjoyable. The vocals are kind of blackish and distant in the mix, but the music was generally excellent.
